SOLD - 2005 C55
Help on buying the 'correct' inner fender - thanks
Hi All,
I have purcahsed a driver side inner fender for 2005 C55 from PartsGeek ( https://www.partsgeek.com/catalog/2005/mercedes/c55_amg/body_mechanical_-ar-_trim/inner_fender.html ). It arrived but much, too small to fit in my car and appears to be for non-AMG W203. It's only for $14+$13 shipping, but they refuse to pay return shipping even the website explicitely states it's for C55, defending it's their policy. I, then, looked around but so many websites appear to sell one that fits all W203 and I'm completely confused. Can anyone please help identifying parts number? If there is a website, it's great but I'm so despirate I'm just very close to go to the dealer.
Thanks!
Rick

I'm sorry I'm in a hurry and can't fire up the parts database. but I have had this problem. For the front fender liner??
did you buy MB1249111? or one like that?
Then I believe you want this one: 2036983030 Lowest I could find it for was $72 and only genuine Mercedes, they make lots of cheap ones for regular c-classes.
here's a link with a drawing: https://parts.mbfm.com/p/Mercedes-Be...036983030.html
Hope this helps some
Good luck!

Hey Marci,
Big Thanks! Yes, this is exactly the one. Unfortunate it's not cheap, but it's not expensive as other stuff either (affordable genuine parts) Besides, I got to see what $13 was and it felt really cheap stuff...
I can finally take the broken piece (and patched) that was held together with duct tape!
Thanks again!!!

I took a gamble and bought the front fender liner for a W209 (209 884 04 22) since our C55s share the same bumper. Perfect fit although it included a small rubber air deflector that isn't present on the C55 piece. Price was cheaper too, I believe it was $55 new on eBay for the genuine MB part from a dealer that sells there.
